Hi I'm from uk, cannot update through OTA. My current android version is 2.2 . My phone is sim free, now comes my question, How can I update to 2.3 ?
2.3 Gingerbread is not even out yet, you'll know when its out when Nexus One's receive it.
so the latest version is 2.2.1
The 2.3(.2) update you might be thinking about is the 2.3.2 verizon update that was for the droid 2 in the US. I don't know if there is an equivalent to milestone 2 users or not,

You're going to be waiting for a while, there is no public android 2.3 yet.

2.2.2 isn't officially released. You'll find it in specific regions (the Italian Milestone 2) but other and older batches haven't got 2.2.2
Furthermore why is it such an issue? It isn't even known what it'll fix. Just wait, Motorola is on it's way developing an update for the device.
Edit: guess I was wrong!
Yeah thank's....i will try install this from argentina, or not...thanks

Froyo (at least by the version numbers)
..
So is the radio included in the ROM? Will we need to flash a froyo radio?
And what's else is included in it?
We supposed to flash to find out?

You don't want to flash that unless you're unrooted, it's signed and a full RUU. Be patient and wait until someone can hack at it. It's only downloading at 50KB/s @ ~400mb.
If you don't know, don't flash it. Leave it for the Devs to look at it and tinker with it.
so this is a new froyo radio?
It's the OTA ROM. It's really here for the Devs. Football releases the RUU. Devs use it as a base for there custom Roms. We download the custom Roms. It's a cycle.
I wish XDA would start creating torrents for things. Far easier to deal with and much faster. Plus, no need for server space.

If you read through the drama filled GB rumor threads in the general section (I don't recommend since there's better uses of time), the only people that think GB is coming by the end of the month are those that want to believe a rumor started by one blog and then relinked to all the other android blogs.
This is most likely just the final update to MR2 that will be the next OTA for froyo that HTC said they were going to fix up before moving onto GB for the TB.
The radio version number is older no? Unless I'm reading the file name wrong...

I unrooted last night and am on stock MR1. can I flash this ruu without any problems, or should I wait for the official ota from verizon?

The last OTA was:
1.13.605.7_Radio_1.16.00 .0402w_NV_8k_1.41_9k_1.64
This one is
1.20.605.0_Radio_1.16.00.0223r_NV_8k_1.41_9k_1.64
I flashed this in Clockwork and my phone froze.. Why would it do that?

I think this is much older than the leaks we have seen. The build number is 1.20. We have seen 1.66 (46 builds newer) & a couple of even newer ones.

+1 Project V is one of the best 2.2 ROMs that has been developed

Bi-Winning V3 is another top shelf 2.2.1 ROM that maintains the Touchwiz if you want

Yes you will loose Root but it will always be unlocked. LISTEN find a 2.2 ROM here and flash it. Any 2.2 ROM here is better,faster, more stable, and will have a better battery life than the stock 2.2. If you dont know how to flash a ROM yet then search and read. There are alot of tutorials here on how to do it. Luck homie.

Lots of options available to you. If you don't want to fiddle and simply want to improve the experience, stick with Froyo. Anything by Toxic should be great for your girlfriend as it has more themes than any other Vibrant ROM. My own personal preference is in my signature.
Hi all, my mom will be getting a new Droid 2 soon that she'll be using on a page plus prepaid plan and I just have a few questions. I know that there is a lot of information here of the forums but things change so often with development that I think I'll get a better answer if I just ask you experinced guys directly.
I'm just looking for the most stable ROM for her, and the best battery life. It doesn't have to be the newest and greatest, it just has to work when she needs it so that she doesn't get irritated with it.
Thanks in advance.
Just stick with stock if she's inexperienced.

Will stock run smooth enough with out any freezing?
It came today and it had 2.2, I think i'll update it to 2.3 though.
It works for the 95% of the users who don't get pissed off enough to come here and change it
.sbf to the second-to latest firmware. If you OTA, you'll end up with the latest, un-rootable update, making any future development impossible.

On your question about most stable Roms, Galnet MIUI 2.2.10 was the best I've used as far as being issueless. Just behind that would be CM9.
If you do decide to flash MIUI you'll probably want to install a different launcher for her as well if she's used to Android and not looking for a change. Otherwise just let her run with it and see how she likes it.
